It is a delightful experience held in an idyllic location in California. The wines are varied and tour exposed us to a spectrum we might not otherwise have explored.

This was a fantastic tour and our guide, Lily, was amazing. She skilfully drove the vehicle and spoke for two hours, providing amusing and entertaining facts about San Francisco. This was our fourth trip to SF, but we still learned so much and saw stuff we hadn’t seen before. Riding in a VW camper van was a great experience and really added to our enjoyment.

Definitely do this!

This was completely worth the money. Low key and no stress. Stop to take pics at Golden Gate Bridge, went to Muir Woods for an hour and a half and then free in Sausalito to explore. It was a perfect outing. Don’t eat at the cafe in Muir Woods. The kids working were rude and terrible cooks.
